Lawrence Os Arabia Voted Best Picture

SANTA MONICA. Calif. (UPD —Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke, recreating their stage roles in "The Miracle Worker." brought the best actress and best sunporting actress Oscars back to Broadway today. The winning actresses —a dynamic professional and a sweetfaced child player — shared the limelight at the 35th annual Academy Awards Monday night with Gregory Peck, voted best actor for "To Kill a Mockingbird,” and the best movie of 1962, "Lawrence of Arabia." Britain’s David Lean won the Viscar for best directing with “Lawrence of Arabia" — which won seven awards in all — and 62-year-old character actor Ed Begley came away as best supporting actor for his performance in “Sweet Bird of Youth.” Civic Auditorium was filled with about 2.500 stars and celebrities for Hollywood’s biggest blowout while more than 2.000 fans cheered from bleachers lining the red-carpeted entrance, and millions watched on televi sion. Lights brilliantly reflected bejeweled glamor girls and their dates while police held back eager autograph seekers. Biggest Turnout It was Hollywood’s biggest night of the year and more movietown celebrities —old and new — turned out than in recent years. Miss Bancroft, curretly starring in Broadway’s "Mother Courage,” was unable to be present to accept her award from Maximilian Schell, last year’s best actor, who presented the

I golden Oscar to Joan Crawford 1 in her place. In New York, Miss Bancroft said: "I tell you I’m so excited I can't believe it.” “I didn't think I would win. I! don't know why but I just didn't," she said at her Greenwich Village apartment where she watched the awards ceremonies on television with a few friends. Miss Duke, who at 16 became the youngest performer in Academy Award history to win a major Oscar, said a timid 'Thank you.” Peck's acceptance speech was longer; "Thank you Thank you Harper Lee, Allan Pacula, Robert Mulligan (the author, produc-1 er and director > and all my good friends and associates. . .who lent me affection.” Attains Stage Stardom Perhaps the greatest drama was in the triumph of Miss Bancroft who for six years was shunted into second-rate pictures in Hollywood. Miss Bancroft, whose real name is Anna Maria Italiano, left movieland in 1957 to attain stardom on the stage in "Two for the Seesaw.” Her Academy Award was won for her performance as Annie Sullivan, the Irish girl who first communicated with Helen Keller as a girl. And the Helen Keller role, just as she played it opposite Miss Bancroft on Broadway, brought the coveted statuette to little Miss Duke. Both actresses are natives of New York who make their homes in the city. Peck’s triumph came after four previous nominations. His winning role was that of a strong, heroic Southern attorney in the screen version of Harper Lee’s prize-winning novel. Clutches Watch “I was carrying Miss Lee’s father’s watch tonight,” the actor said backstage. “I was clutching it at the right moment. This role seemed to fit me like an old comfortable suit of clothes.” Best supporting actor Begley said, “This is the peak of my career — very definitely.” Begley was so affected by his role as a tyrannical political boss in “Sweet Bird of Youth” that he forbade his children to see him in the part. Independent producer Sam Spiegel and director David Lean joined forces to win Academy Awards for the second time when “Lawrence of Arabia” was voted best picture of 1962. They won for best picture and best direction for “Bridge on the River. Kwai” in 1957. w • Donald Germann On Purdue Dean's List Donald Germann, a junior in electrical engineering at Purdue University, was on the dean’s list for the first semester with a 5.8 average out of a possible 6.0.

CONFERENCE (Continued from Page One) tive 1963-65 budget would be in state support to schools from $340 million to about $244 million. The Senate and House both reconvene at 11 a.m. today and a meeting of Democratic senators and representatives with Governor Welsh also is scheduled- Welsh returned late Monday from Oklahoma City. Democratic Senate Leader Marshall Kizer said after the defeat of the new Democratic tax package that, “We may be here until Memorial Day. I’m at the end of my string on tax programs.” Legislature’s 90th Day The legislature now is in the 90th day of a regular and special session. The first special session ends by law April 20, but the governor could call an additional special session. Kizer said he did not want a sales tax but might vote for it if the Republicans would accept the graduated net income tax plan he has backed throughout both sessions. Kizer also said he was standing by Welsh in the governor’s effort to include money for a Lake Michigan port in the tax plan. Republicans charged that the inclusion

of the port was responsible for the tax plan defeat. Democratic Senate caucus chair man William Christy, who has riot backed the port, said that he aid not know when he would carry out his plan to ask a caucus for a vote of confidence in his leadership, challenged by Welsh as detrimental to the Democratic policy. President Pro Tern D. Russell Bontrager said the GOP caucus which rejected the adjusted gross income tax plan Monday just prior to the 22-20 vote also showed “considerable sentiment for a balanced budget.” The House during a brief afternoon session adopted on first reading a reapportionment plan for itself by a vote of 49-29. This was a plan reported out of the legislative apportionment committee and represents a new approach at obtaining agreement during the special session. The plan, in a new bill introduced since the special session began, cannot come up for a second reading before Wednesday. The report on adoption came because Democrats had indicated earlier a minority report might be filed, but no such report was presented.

Passage Hoped For It was hoped by some the measure would pass the House and a Senate plan for itself could be inserted as an amendment and the whole package adopted as a conference report. An alteady existing conference committee on reapportionment has failed in efforts to work out a compromise betwen differing bills passed earlier. In other action, the House passed, 52-23, a proposed constitutional amendment removing from the governor the responsibility of filling vacancies in the legislature due to deaths- The power would go to the county committee of the political party to which the deceased lawmaker belonged. The resolution now goes to the Senate. Reps. Spencer J. Schnaitter, DMadison, and Walter Beneville, D-Jeffersonville, introduced a bill to replace a regular session measure which Welsh allowed to become law without his signature. It would allow boat liveries on the Ohio River to get exemption from the state highway tax for the gasoline they sell. Beneville said the bill was amended in the Senate and “by leaving out some little dashes, or something, it evidently included airports in the tax.” The bill in its new form specified that buyers of motor fuel used in propelling aircraft engines and in propelling motor boat engines may purchase such fuel free of tax if the fuel is obtained from a licensed distributor.

Issue Renewed On Nonexistent Neutron Bomb WASHINGTON (UPD — An administration official and a senator today unmasked the “neutron bomb” as the "clean” H-bomb. They agreed that if it can be made, it will be cheaper than existing nuclear weapons and produce hardly any radioactive fallout. They agreed on little else. The issue of the much discussed but nonexistent neutron bomb was aired again in an exchange of letters between Adrian S. Fisher, deputy director of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, and Sen. Thomas J. Dodd. D-Conn. The letters were published in the Congressional Record. Fisher said America’s nuclear arsenal ‘Ts larger and more dfversified and more sophisticated than that of the Soviet Union.” Dodd Disagrees Dodd said that as a result of their latest tests the Russians may have caught up with the United States and “surpassed us” in some respects. Dodd is highly critical of administration proposals for a nuclear test ban treaty with Russia. He said they do not have adequate safeguards against cheating Fisher strongly defends the proposed treaty and says it i would be good for U.S. security. Among other things, Dodd argued that the proposed treaty would permit Russia to perfect the neutron bomb by means of undetectable underground tests. Fisher identified the neutron bomb as “the pure fusion bomb” and asserted that “development of such a weapon is by no means certain.” Fission And Fusion The nuclear reactions of atomic weaponry are fission and fusion. Fission is the reaction which produces intense and deadly radioactive fallout. Existing H-bombs consist of fusion charges, fission triggers, and, in some cases fission jackets. A truly “clean” bomb would be an Hbomb triggered by something other than fission. Nobody yet knows just what this would be. Up to now, only fission explosions have been able to generate the multimillion-de-gree temperatures needed to trigger fusion in a bomb. The fission component of a fis-sion-fusion weapon is the costly one. Invent a fissionless H-bomb and you invent a cheaper weapon.

conscientious objectors were Samuel G. Schwartz and Moses J. Shetler.
